I am truly sorry for your loss, your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I will miss jimmys heartwarming smile, his kind eyes, & his Boston accent when he called me sweetheart. Romans 8:36-37 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
